Living with hearing loss

Hearing loss can have a big impact on a person’s life. It’s not uncommon for people to become withdrawn and isolated as communication becomes harder. Work and social life can get more difficult.

A change in hearing can leave some people feeling excluded from everyday sounds like music, traffic, and voices – which can create a sense of being permanently on the outside, or perhaps not even safe.

BT and Hearing Link have put together this guide to help you as your hearing changes. It’s aimed at people with hearing loss, but we hope it’ll also be useful for your family, friends and colleagues.
